T have just found out this book was written although another book company states this book was written (Published) in 2010) but im definitly going to be getting this book and reading it, I have the previous 8 and am just finishing up book #7 and will be ordering (down to the sea) I read on the other site he was going to be continuing this series but havent found any others??? whats the deal?? this book was published in Dec 2000 and nothing sense?? is it an open ended book?? not concluded because I would hate to buy a book and have it not ended after 11 yrs???
I have really enjoyed the "Lost Regiment" series and I fell that "Down to the Sea" maybe the best one yet! The story takes place twenty years after the last novel. Time has changed much in the Human Republic, it had grown, new cultures have been added and new characters are introduced. Our old foe, the Bantang Hoard are just a shadow of what they used to be but hunger for the glory of their forefathers. Meanwhile, the HAZAN, a hoard from the south, is introduced. The HAZAN are more advanced then the humans and have spent their time fighting among themselves. Now, in an attempt to consolidate their power, the new emperor and the powerful priest behind the thrown will strike north to crush the humans! What I have enjoyed from the past novels are still here, great characters, great storyline, but this novel is different. Forstchen has transformed his story from a basic survival of the human race story to much richer world of interspecies political intrigue. For the first time, the humans are facing a foe who are more advanced not only in technology but in the area of politics as well. Of course the humans have some advantages, which do not seem like much, even at the end of the book. I can¿t wait for this story to develop and look forward for the next book!
I echo the sentiments of the previous reviewers wholeheartedly!!!
This latest novel in William Forstchen's _Lost Regiment_ science-fiction series, DOWN TO THE SEA, is not only one of the most enjoyable science-fiction novels I've read in some time (well, ever since finishing his marvelous MEN OF WAR), but it is also an utterly compelling recasting of George Orwell's _1984_ in universal terms. This novel is the story of the discovery by the young Republic, a human-based nation on an alien world founded by men of Earth accidentally transported to this new world via fantastic alien technology, of a new threat to their hard-won freedom. The Kazan, a mighty empire of aliens who are kin to the Hordes who had enslaved, tortured, and murdered the human beings on this world since time out of mind, knows of the Republic, and determines to crush it. Lieutenants Richard Cromwell and Sean O'Donnell, one the son of a traitor to the Republic and the other the son of one of its great heroes, taken prisoner by the Kazan after an ill-fated reconnaissance flight over the territorial waters of the Kazan, learn to their horror that the Kazan are planning to destroy the Republic. Cromwell is allowed to escape and take word of what is about to happen back to the Republic by the high priest of the religious order that is the real power behind the throne of the Empire for reasons which have to do with an unknown game-within-a-game played by the priest against the Emperor. O'Donnell, on the other hand, remains a captive -- one to be converted to the frightening religion of the Shiv, human beings who have been bred for countless generations to become supermen beyond anything ever dreamed of by the Nazis . . . _real_ supermen with no loyalty to the Republic, men and women able to take on 100-to-1 odds and win against that could be thrown against them by ordinary men and women. Sean discovers, to his horror, that the Shiv are intended to become the tools by which the Empire will destroy the Republic, all that stands between humanity on this world and their total enslavement and destruction by the Kazan and their relatives. -- But thanks to a woman of the Shiv assigned to him, together with the drugs that she and the priests administer to him daily, soon his horror is converted to exultation, and, finally, to complete acceptance of the goal of the breeding-program by which the Kazan have been creating the Shiv over generations. In chapter 11 of DOWN TO THE SEA, Sean O'Donnell says to Karinia, concerning the breeding of human beings by the Kazan: 'I understand how,' Sean said softly, almost fearfully. 'I do not understand why.' In George Orwell's _1984_, Part III, O'Brien asks Winston Smith, '. . . Do you remember writing in your diary, 'I understand _how_; I do not understand _why_'? It was when you thought about 'why' that you doubted your own sanity. . . .' Later, in the same chapter, he answers his own question: 'The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power. Not wealth or luxury or long life or happiness; only power, pure power. . . .' And just so, Karinia answers Sean McDonnell's question: '. . . Those of the inner circle know that nothing exists beyond this life. Therefoer it is power, my lover, power and nothing else that matters and that drives the game of our lives.' She smiled. 'And that power then gives us the pleasures we desire.' At the end of _1984_, Winston Smith is thinking about everything he has been through at the hands of Miniluv, the police arm of Oceania: '. . . But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. he loved Big Brother.' Sean O'Donnell has likewise undergone his own journey from hatred and loathing of the enemy to love of them and what they intend to do to humanity. He, too, has come to love Big Brother. Only in this case, it is Big Brother within himself he now loves, most of all.
A spectacular story that grabs you from the start. Keep 'em coming Mr. Forstchen!
There is no peace in a world shared by the Horde. After twenty years of peaceful life after 'Men of War' our heroes have all grown old and some have even past away. Now the sons of our hero¿s step up into the light, graduation of the academy introduces us to four young men that this book and others will follow. 'Down to the Sea' also introduces the reader to a new and deadlier foe. Religious fanatics in the Horde, blind belief to follow to follow a religious leader who will stop at nothing. A game within a game within a game, and everyone is but a piece on the board. The Kazan, the new southern Horde we are introduced to, have a great navy, far greater than our heroes, and the also have an army of bred human warriors The Shiv. Mindless, soulless, Frankenstein monsters that even make the Horde nervous. I wondered as I read if this creation will only some day turn against their creators as all monsters do. Once again, William R, Forstchen gives his readers a grand and sweeping story that I feel has reached epic proportions! He is able to breath such life into his work, his characters are so real, that as you read you again feel as we did in his other 'Lost Regiment' books, that we are once again with them. Our old friends are back with us again, and we are introduced to new ones, and we feel for them as we did for their fathers before them. This is really what makes the 'Lost Regiment' series, Mr. Forstchen¿s ability to give us real characters. Hero¿s and villain¿s we can feel for, have pride in, believe in, laugh with, and cry with. There is more than a couple of great goose bump scene¿s in 'Down to the Sea', I was stirred more than a couple of times with the same awe and power and even choked up a few times. Mr. Forstchen was worried about writing a new series, he did not wish to write a rehash, or just tack on another story to the series. I don¿t think he has any worries. 'Down to the Sea' is a fresh and bold look into a New World of the 'Lost Regiment.' Another great book!
I AM SO GLAD THAT MR. FORTSCHEN HAS DECIDED TO CONTINUE THIS STORY. FROMT HE VERY FIRST BOOK THIS SERIES GRABBED ONTO ME AND IT HAS NOT LET GO YET!!! I WAS ALWAYS INTERESTED IN THE CIVIL WAR PERIOD BUT I WAS TIRED OF READING ABOUT THE PAST. THIS STORY ALSO IS IN THE PAST BUT THE FUTURE FOR THE 35TH IS MADE UP ENTIRELY BY THEM. TRANSFORMING A PEOPLE WHO WERE IN THE MIDDLE AGES AT BEST INTO A MODERN CIVIL WAR STATE WAS NOTHING LESS THAN FIRST RATE MOXY BY THE 35TH!! AND THIER NEW ENIMEIS ARE THE LEAST FORGIVING SORT THAT MAN HAS EVER FACED. TO KNOW THAT LOSING THIS WAR MEANS A HORRIFIC DEATH (in some cases wathcing your family eaten right before your eyes) WOULD BE ENOUGH TO MAKE ME FIGHT THAT MUCH HARDER. ANYONE WHO HAS NOT READ ANY OF THE PREVIOUS NOVELS SHOULD ORDER ONE RIGHT NOW AND JOIN THE 35TH IN THEIR STRUGGLE TO FREE NOT JUST THEMSELVES BUT A WHOLE WORLD AS WELL!!!
this is the best science fiction I have ever read, Forstchens knowledge of the civil war and ancient history is impeccable. Get Book 1. Rally Cry and u will be hooked from there.
I can't wait for this book to come out! I was so sad when I heard the series was finished. Thank you, Mr. Forstchen, for writing another. Please don't let The Lost Regiment ever end! (does anyone know an email address for the author?) DJC Vancouver, BC, Canada

On the healty side of standard. About 50% raw. I notice that when I'm not eating enough raw foods I get sick easier.
Connecting with other people trying to lead healthy lifestyles is encouraging.
I eat when I'm stressed, and sometimes I don't take enough time to plan out my menus.
Apple Spice Cake
Raw food is the healthiest nutrition there is. I enjoy learning new recipes.
I am continually reminded how important my food choices influence my overall health. This is the place to learn how to make delicious, living foods.

i finally read this whole thing XDDD so. since the light is a trap and you aren't even supposed to look at it and if the demons or whatever know that you know it's a trap will try other soul trap things then... how do you get away? LOL.
they can apparently touch you and erase your memories, read your memories and show you things that scare you, show you your fantasies and people you loved who died, and based on this thread and all the stuff people researched you cant go past Jupiter because that automatically removes your memories, some people say that you should go to the sun o_o and that they'res a portal there that lets you tell the antibodies or something what's going on here O_O, and some people say the antibodies are already here O__O and they are being blackmailed by the repitilian people who want to take over the universe because they want to be worshipped as gods FOR NO REASON AT ALL (since the universe is supposed to be a happy fucking creative place and its fun and wonderful WHY DO YOU WANT TO RUIN THAT??? IT MAKES NO FUCKING SENSE) THENNN the op says the "indian person" was a shill person and all those other people and didn't answer his questions like one I was wondering too was when you die should you not give them your anger or fear O_o or do they only "feed" on fear, hate and love? LOL what if it does make the demons stronger? then what are you saying op LOL im so confused by this whole thing...
then in this thread everyone starts talking about ghrees and how the universe is like a body then is there something outside of the body O___O like infinite bodies outside of every body...??? and then people say you cant go back in time without making the whole universe go back in time which makes sense to me XD but then people start talking about that adampants guy who i listened to ALL of his videos. but based on this thread the reps. control your reality and dreams and shit so when adampants said "hurr durr everything is coordinated around me go out and nature and talk to the animales LOL even THOUGH THEY ARE CONTROLLED AND STUCK HERE TOO AND BEING USED AS ENERGY SOURCES! T_T and you can only know the spirit by its loooveee if you can see it, it aint god and don't worry bout whats going on the creative spirit knows what it's doing ಠ_ಠ" but since this place IS the cancer how can you know if god is really talking to you through life????? SO VERY CONFUSING LOL and why cant you worry THIS IS A PROBLEM
THEN people (i think the op said this XD) say that people make those movies like control factor ect. so that when people think it could be real, people could just say "DERP NOO LOL DOOD YOU GOT THAT FROM -insert movie- LOL ITS FAKE BRUH DUH MOVIEE DIRECTOR MADE IT UP WIT HIZ IMAGINATION!!!111"
oof so many questions LOL and i watched almost all of David dIckes videos and bashar's and now that this thread is saying they're lunar agents saying reality is an illusion it makes me even more confused AHHHHHHHHH WHAT IS LIFE

You've listen and read many different sources now its up to your personal critical thinking and research to separate the truth from the lies and find the missing details.
Anonymous Coward 23953120
I forgot to answer your question about anger or fear.
I stopped reading by the way the parasites posts so whatever questions they make towards me i'm not gonna be aware of it.
Here's a scenario.
You exit your body, you're surrounded by draconians ready to capture you carrying also a medusa and siren weapon that attacks you through your vision and hearing, what do you do?
Here are my thoughts, fear can help you run away trying to escape(if not used right it can also make you unable to fight when escape is not possible), anger will help you fight plus when you're very angry music can have no effect on you as you become determined to pulverize the motherf*ckers like bale did at the end in equilibrium.
I've noticed that too when angry and hear my favorite songs they don't have the same impact on me that they have when not angry and calm.
Also a lot of anger can change your vision into a beast's vision like in painkiller pc game where the medusa light will have to pass through that filter before it reaches you which might make that weapon also ineffective on you.
And there's times where you have to use your critical thinking to escape from some traps and solve some problems where fear and anger will only cloud your critical thinking.
You can use everything to your advantage when you learn the positives and negatives of each thing and in what situations is best to apply it.
Similar to putting the right shoe on the right foot. lol.
Anonymous Coward 23953120
Here's my full post where i expressed
my personal thoughts
about anger and fear where the indian parasite just used the quote out of context strategy to manipulate my message.

and ghrees has exposed the crap out of tibetan monks budism etc just like all other lunar religions draconian parasites hiding behind words like love etc that rub the ears of their victims.
Raymond drake exposed the tibetan monks too in his book gods and spacemen throughout history where he informed us about a group of tibetan monks from the thoulu brotherhood moved to germany prior to the world wars and it was them who brainwashed the germans and promoted the nazism ideology of the aryan race etc etc.
Raymond drake himself expressed his frustration on how these tibetan monks of "love" could promote such lunacy!
Little did he know about their true face and agenda and the common strategy they use "wolf in sheep's clothing!".

Use the "tibetan book of the dead" as your guide and bible in the soul dimension and we'll see how long you'll survive!
I bet it recommends to show love instead of hate and anger to the galactic criminals, emotions that empower you and will help you destroy them where emotions like love will transform into a sheep and like the draconian witches from the movie "stardust" said
"your heart/soul tastes so good when full of love".

1. Introduction
[2] On 15 November, 2006, 11:14 (UTC), an earthquake of the moment magnitude 8.3 (USGS) occurred in the vicinity of Kuril Islands. A tsunami that accompanied this earthquake propagated across the entire Pacific Ocean. Although no devastating damage or casualties from the tsunami were reported, this tsunami showed extraordinary features during its propagation in the northern Pacific. According to Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) [2006], at 22 of 70 tide stations along the Pacific coast of Japan, the maximum tsunami heights occurred more than 5 hours after the primary wave arrived. Generally, possible causes for the long duration of tsunami oscillations have been trapped mode of edge waves on continental shelf and scattering waves from seamounts. In particular, Mofjeld et al. [2001] pointed out that topographic features of the Pacific Ocean interacts with tsunami as it passes by, creating interference patterns of scattering waves.
[3] The present study aims to determine the effect of scattering waves on the trans-oceanic propagation of the 2006 Kuril Island earthquake tsunami toward the Pacific coast of Japan. First, the authors perform numerical modeling, and comprehend the tsunami propagation features in the northern Pacific and the contribution of scattering waves from the Emperor seamounts on the tsunami energy along the Pacific coast of Japan. Second, through the spectral evolution analysis of observed tsunami records in Japan, the frequency response of the scattering waves from the Emperor seamounts is discussed.

This issue is forked from the comments in #1239946: Embedded field collection items with a default value result in new items on save and #1662998: Create configuration option to ignore chosen collected fields when checking for an empty field collection. There have been many requests for the following functionality:
- Using the embedded widget, field collection shows only created collections with an "add another item" button.
- When no created collections exist, field collection shows an "add an item" button, and nothing else.
Proposed Solution
This was prototyped in #1239946-39: Embedded field collection items with a default value result in new items on save, but needs to be reworked as its own option for the new dev branch.
See also #1788228: [Meta] Field collection and required or default value fields collected issues and solutions overview.

I really need this functionality for my site, and I'd be more than happy to simply patch my local copy of field_collection to fix this issue, but I have no idea which section of code from the various patches on that page contains the removed prototype of this functionality. Could someone please point me in the right direction, so that I can patch field_collection to quiet the complaints from my users?
Comment #2servantleader CreditAttribution: servantleader commented
Are this and related issues going to be addressed, or has development on this module been abandoned? Without fixing this, the module is only usefull for simple use cases (it is almost useless if you want a radio select without a N/A option). I would start writting the code myslef if I knew that it would be reviewed and commited, if not, I need to find a diferent solution than this module.

There are issues with using this patch with the Field Collection Node Clone module. When you clone a node with field collections using this patch, it will remove the first item in every field collection.
I haven't had a chance to look into it further yet, however I thought I'd flag it up. We just had to temporarily remove this functionality whilst cloning content.

from original issue description i see:
When no created collections exist, field collection shows an "add an item" button, and nothing else.
would this suggest that when i am first creating a node which has a FC field with number of values = 1; i should see ONLY an "Add" button and no initial FC form? Even though the field setting states:
Remove the blank item that is always added to any multivalued field's form. If checked, user must explicitly add the field collection.
it sounds as though this would only apply for multivalued items. (and sure enough i do not get an Add button for my field but the single FC edit form as i used to get prior to patch)
i am not sure why we wouldn't want an Add button EVERY TIME when we state we want an Add button..

- Double quotes have been replaced with single quotes.
- 'hide_initial_items' has been renamed 'hide_initial_item'.
- 'hide_initial_item' is only shown on the form only if 'hide_blank_items' is TRUE.
- Initial item is only removed if 'hide_blank_items' is TRUE and if 'cardinality' is -1.
- Comment syntax has been corrected

Patch in #24 seems to be working fine.
Comment #27meecect CreditAttribution: meecect as a volunteer commented
#24 works, however, it would be nice if we had control of the button text. I use the custom add another module, which allows you to set the text that appears on the default 'add another' and 'remove' button. This module adds a third possibility, but we can't control the text. In my case, it's a form that is adding children, so my buttons normally say 'add another child', and 'remove child'.
When I enable this module, the button initially says 'Add another item', and then if i click it, I see the form for the blank item, but the button changes to 'add another child'.

The issue described by #27 is not a regression. The "Custom Add Another" module is a dependent module. Custom Add Another needs to account for the change made by this patch downstream when it implements hook_preprocess_field_multiple_value_form().

Comment #33mvlabat CreditAttribution: mvlabat as a volunteer commented
Applying the previous patch breaks the field collection subfields which bave their (css/js) attachements.
You can test this, for instance, with Geofield and Addressfield Autocomplete combination.
To reproduce it you have to add a field collection containing geofield populated from Addressfield Autocomplete field.
This patch fixes this issue.

The balconies are not all facing the beach (only about 1/4 actually face ocean) and the rest look out over parking, roof air conditioning units, or street. The beds were nice and the bathroom was updated but the carpet was old and a yucky brown color.

Auction: Auctionata -Jan 22, 2016 - BerlinLot number: 4
Other WORKS AT AUCTION
The sculpture of David from Antonin Mercié was created around 1872 and can be found today in the Musée d'Orsay in Paris. It was being so widely admired at this point, that the foundry Barbedienne decided to produce it in six smaller sizes, one of which is in this auction. Condition: The bronze sculpture is in a good condition with only slight, hardly visible age traces. It measures 91 cm in height. Ferdinand Barbedienne (1810-1892) & Achille Collas (1795-1859) Ferdinand Barbedienne was one of the most important bronze foundrymen active in France in the 19th century. In 1839 he associated with the engineer Achille Collas (1795-1859) and founded the company 'Collas et Barbedienne''''. At the beginning they specialized in small-sized bronze casts that reproduced the works of contemporary artists, as well as of ancient Greek and Roman masters. After the death of his partner in 1859, Barbedienne extended his activities towards the casting of monumental bronzes. The company developed into a flourishing business that successfully produced for mainly export markets, since 1870. The outstanding quality of his production was repeatedly rewarded at the universal exhibition, including, for instance, the Grande Médaille d'Honneur in Paris, 1855. A.

Barack Obama or Barry Dunham? The Appearance of Multiracial Faces is Affected by the Names Assigned to Them
- e-mail: khilliar{at}psy.unsw.edu.au
Does semantic information in the form of stereotypical names influence participants' perceptions of the appearance of multiracial faces? Asian-Australian and European-Australian participants were asked to rate the appearance of Asian-Australian faces given typically Asian names, European-Australian faces given typically European names, multiracial faces given Asian names, and multiracial faces given European names. Participants rated the multiracial faces given European names as looking significantly 'more European' than the same multiracial faces given Asian names. This study demonstrates how socially derived expectations and stereotypes can influence face perception.

South Korea Agrees Won-Yuan Trading Link, RQFII Quota With China
South Korea and China will introduce direct trading between the won and the yuan in Seoul and promote greater use of the Chinese currency under agreements reached today during talks between the two nations' leaders.
South Korea also won an 80 billion yuan ($12.9 billion) quota for domestic investors to buy securities in China under the Renminbi Qualified Foreign Institutional Investor program, according to a statement issued by the Bank of Korea and the finance ministry. Sales of yuan-denominated debt in Seoul will be encouraged and a memorandum of understanding was also signed to appoint a yuan clearing bank in the city.
The agreements, reached during a visit to Seoul by Chinese President Xi Jinping, will help South Korea become an offshore yuan center and bring "visible" economic benefits, according to the statement. China has been South Korea's biggest trading partner since 2004 and accounted for some 25 percent of the latter's exports in the last six months.
"Today's announcements will have a synergy effect in boosting financial transactions between the two nations and lessen South Korea's dependence on the U.S. currency," An Yu Hua, a Seoul-based fellow researcher at Korea Capital Market Institute, said by phone. "The won-yuan direct trading will cut currency risks and RQFII will encourage South Korean investors to trade the yuan."
South Korea and China will seek to establish infrastructure enabling the won to be directly exchangeable for yuan in Shanghai, according to today's statement. The won can only trade onshore at present. The RQFII quota awarded today was the same as China gave to London and Paris, and compares with 50 billion yuan for Singapore and 270 billion yuan for Hong Kong.
Yuan Push
Xi's talks with South Korean President Park Geun Hye come at a time when China is promoting the use of its currency as an alternative to the dollar in global trade and finance.
The British pound became the fifth major currency to be exchangeable directly for yuan in Shanghai last month, joining the Australian and New Zealand dollars, the Japanese yen and the U.S. dollar. China plans to accelerate free trade talks with South Korea and deepen cooperation in finance and macroeconomic policies, Xi said in a contribution to South Korea's Chosun Ilbo newspaper today as his two-day visit commenced.
The establishment of a won-yuan market can facilitate yuan settlement in bilateral trade and may help reduce appreciation pressure for the Korean currency against the U.S. dollar by curbing inflows, Kwon Goohoon, a Seoul-based economist for Goldman Sachs Group Inc., wrote in a March 5 report.
China Trade
Given South Korea's large trade surplus with China and the Chinese policy of promoting yuan usage globally, efforts to create the won-yuan market are likely to gain momentum in the second half of this year, Kwon wrote in a June 30 note.
South Korean exports to Asia's biggest economy climbed 0.6 percent in the first half of 2014 and the trade surplus totaled $24.08 billion, a July 1 report by the trade ministry showed.
China's central bank will appoint a Chinese bank in Seoul as the yuan clearing house. Bank of China Ltd. is the clearing lender for the yuan in Hong Kong, Macau and Taipei, while the mandate in Singapore went to Industrial & Commercial Bank of China Ltd. Bank of China's Frankfurt branch became the first institution in the euro area able to clear payments in yuan last month.
South Korean residents' yuan deposits jumped 70 percent to the equivalent of $11.33 billion in the first five months of 2014, Bank of Korea data show. The nation's exporters settled 85 percent of their payments in dollars in the first quarter, according to an April 23 central bank statement. The euro's share was 6.1 percent, the yen's 3.2 percent and the won accounted for 2 percent. Around 0.4 percent was settled in yuan.
China's currency ranked seventh for global payments in May, according to the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications. The won appreciated 5.2 percent against the dollar in the second quarter of 2014 and 5 percent against the yuan, the biggest gains among 31 major exchange rates tracked by Bloomberg.

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. -- Joe Paterno will stay in the hospital
at least through Wednesday, and possibly longer, as a precautionary
step in the Penn State coach's recovery from left leg surgery.
The 79-year-old coach was in good condition Tuesday night at
Mount Nittany Medical Center and had not had any complications from
the operation, said Guido D'Elia, a team spokesman. Doctors were
being "extra-cautious" and would take it day-to-day in
determining when he could be released, D'Elia said.
The feisty Paterno, eager to get home, "has not been the best
rehab patient," D'Elia said. Paterno still wants to return to
practice, and missing Saturday's game against Temple "was not a
consideration" for him, D'Elia said.
Doctors operated Sunday on Paterno to repair a fractured shin
bone and two torn knee ligaments in the left leg. The 41-year head
coaching veteran was walloped along the sideline on Saturday by two
players in the second half of Penn State's loss to Wisconsin.
The Nittany Lions have pressed on without him, though practice
has been a little quieter.
"For the last three years that I've been up here, he's been up
and down the field yelling at us," center A.Q. Shipley said
Tuesday. "Not hearing the voice is different."
Paterno has been studying scouting reports and game plans from
his hospital bed, giving assistants an earful over the phone and
reviewing practice tapes.
"I guess he's doing OK. I know he's anxious to get back at
it," defensive coordinator Tom Bradley said. "He's been driving
us crazy down here with calls."
Team doctor Wayne Sebastianelli has said that Paterno was
expected to make a full recovery after several screws were inserted
into the injured leg, which also was fitted with a temporary brace.
Paterno might be able to put weight back on the leg in about six
If he returns to practice, Paterno might be confined to roaming
the sidelines in a golf cart, at least during practice.
But the logistics of Paterno in a cart on the field during a
game might be tough. For one, Paterno might not have a good view if
he's relegated to sitting. And sidelines can get pretty full on
game days with players, coaches, school officials, referees and
recruits, so the coach's box above the field might afford him the
best view.
Either way, Bradley said his boss doesn't like the spotlight.
"He's probably a little embarrassed that all this attention is
on him instead of the team," said Bradley, who has worked with
Paterno for 28 years.
Cornerback Tony Davis said Bradley runs team meetings in
Paterno's absence.
"Coach Bradley keeps everything the same," Davis said. "No
matter what happens, he keeps everything the same."
The Nittany Lions can likely wrap up a date to a New Year's Day
bowl with wins at home over the Owls and next week against Michigan
State. Shipley said he expects his head coach back with the team
come Saturday.
"I wouldn't assume any other way," he said. "He's got a tough
nature, a gritty attitude. He's a stubborn man."

Let's get the negatives out of the way first:
1. There are no pictures of the finished dishes. I REALLY like pictures.
****EDIT 1/3/2010**** In fairness to Ms Dragonwagon I would like to point out that she added pictures of some of the finished recipes here on the Amazon book page. They are really good photos and will give you an idea of how some of the recipes will look after they are prepared. I'm still cooking up a storm from this book and I'm sure you will too if you decide to try it. Enjoy!****
2. With the exception of the cover, the entire book is black, white, and a kind of pumpkin/orangie color. Not very exciting visually.
3. It is my opinion that much too much emphasis was given to the differences between cornbread as made in the South and cornbread as made in the North. Why go to so much trouble? Just put in the recipes and let me decide if I want to try them.
4. After a while (by about page 100) I really wasn't paying very much attention to the huge amount of information regarding cornmeal and history. Too, too much information.
Now for the positives:
1. It is very obvious that this book was a labor of love for this author. She knows her cornmeal from top to bottom. She even states in the book that this project was six years in the making and I can certainly believe it.
2.Read more ›
This is not just a cookbook. It's stories wound around history, looped with facts and hints and tied together with recipes that will join your repertoire and never, ever leave. It's not just cornbread recipes, either! It's muffins and pones and pancakes and go-withs like greens and soups.
I, like so many people that Crescent Dragonwagon met in her travels, grew up with cornbread and have a deep affection for it; not just because I love it, but because of the memories it brings with it each time it's pulled hot from the oven. When I told my mom about this book, the first thing out of her mouth was, "Grandma made cornbread every day of her life." I didn't know that! I knew grandma made it, of course, but I didn't know it was a daily thing for her. I asked mom if grandma had a recipe or if she (and I looked around and lowered my voice at this) made it from a box. Thankfully, mom said grandma always used a recipe, "...yellow cornmeal-always, a little flour, some sugar..." Just as I'd suspected.
At any rate, when I read about the history of cornbread and how it at one time was thought by some to be "poor people food", or that others were looked down upon for eating it, it nearly broke my heart. Cornbread is beautiful to me, and to think that anyone would think different was just not right. I kept reading, not able to stop, and found that thoughts turned around eventually. I didn't know there was so much to know about cornbread.
I couldn't wait to get started on making some of those recipes, so I chose 3 and got started.Read more ›
